i have found some alloy wheels on freeads the other day as most of you allready know,i went to see them today and bought them with 185/55/15 tyres (nearly full thread on them) valve caps and all in there .

i wont be able to put them on yet ,they need a good clean first (not that they are dirty at all) but then i want to paint my bogging ,rusty rear brake drums into black to cover the rust . its not very nice to have alloys on a car with fully rust coloured drums now is it???
here they are as as set of four before cleaning and more

any ideas on painting the rusty drums , would hammerite be allright on them just to cover the rust color???? or will i have to get some high temp resistant spray ????

hammerite with enough coats will do the job just fine.
